Hello,
I have an application (Wall Street Pro - a stock analysis and charting program) that supports DDE. So it can read realtime data, for example, from an Excel spreadsheet. I do this by pointing WallStreet to a specific DDE Service (i.e. Excel), DDE Topic (i.e. Workbook) and DDE Item (i.e. Cell). Now I would like it to read data from QM. So, I would need a QM function that acts as a DDE-server. How can I do this in QM?
I have found some DDE functions in the QM system library that make QM act as a DDE client, but I cannot find any tips or clues in the help file or on this forum how to use it as a DDE server. I have been using QM for a couple of years and I do have some experience programming complex functions and macros.
Hope you can help....
